14 Ways To Get Targeted Traffic From Twitter

Posted By Rafay Baloch , 2 Comments so far



The days of the past are long gone now and you cant really seem to rely on search engines to divert traffic to your website/blog. Google and the like are constantly updating their systems and this is the recipe for complete disaster for most websites. Hence, keeping a backup option is a good idea. In short, if you don't keep yourself up-to date, soon enough the little traffic you get is going to dry out.

In such a case, Twitter is your best friend! It can drive the traffic to your website with ease and finesse that most bloggers like us require. All you need to do is learn a few tips and tricks that are going to help you get more Twitter traffic. And we going to show you how Twitter can be the most effective when search engines aren't being too beneficial.


  • Name Matters:
These days people are looking for things that are more shinny - in a manner of speaking. Shinny elements seem to attract people in a much wider prospective. You will not believe how much difference it would make if you only choose a name that suits your style and the style of your audience. Choosing the right name is going to drive targeted traffic from twitter to your blog. Try it out and witness the magic.

  • Profile Picture:
Choosing the right profile picture can do wonders too. We would suggest you to use your companies logo. This is going to convince your audience that your not doing it for the fun of it. People like people whom they can depend on.

  • Go Crazy With 'Follow' Button:
Its common sense that if you decide to follow someone about 90% of the times they are going to follow you back. So choose wisely and follow anyone and everyone you can. This gives you access to a wide variety of people that your website is going to be exposed to. We are also very fond of this little tweak called TweetAdder. This is the simplest automated software to add more Twitter junkies to your followers list.

  • Publish Your Feed Automatically:
Connect your blog's feed to your Twitter account. This is very important as all your updates are going to be tweeted without you having to do the extra effort. We are going to suggest FeedBurner to do just that. And in case you aren't using it then there's a second option right here http://app.dlvr.it/. Just click on the link and follow the instructions.

  • Add Your Blog Address To Your Twitter Account:
This trick is going to help you drive some traffic into your blog. Simply add a backlink to your website and your audience are going to do the rest for you.

  • Tweet And Be Active:
Make contacts, find friends, add followers, mention other users in your tweets, socialize, search for other users with similar interests but NEVER SPAM (unless your planning on getting your blog traffic down).

  • Find Your Own Kind:
Search for people with the interests similar to your own and follow their followers. If you hit a jackpot and find the right people with the right audience then you are good to go. This is going to generate more traffic to your blog through Twitter. Every time a follower reads your tweet that they like, they are sure to click on your link and visit your website (at least once).

  • Use Twitter Search Wisely:
Use Twitter search to find your own kind. For example, if you wanted to know who's talking about technology then simply write down in the search tab:

technology articles -http
The reason why we are adding -http to the search is because we do not want to find our competitors, instead we are looking for people who are talking about, discussing or showing interest in technology and the like. This is going to help you target the audience that technology and related topics appeal to.

  • Tweet And Tweet Again:
Let people retweet your tweets. It will produce a snowball effect and before you know it the traffic to your blog is going to increase substantially.

  • Knowing What Your Audience Wants:
In order to get targeted traffic from Twitter, you need to understand your audience first. According to the type of audience you receive, you should tweet in a language that would attract them the most. Products and messages that are tailored according to your niche are very important.
Your followers aren't always looking for informative tweets, so an entertaining tweet wont hurt every once in a while. Grabbing your audience's attention will ensure constant targeted traffic on your blog.

  • Knowing How Your Audience Like Their Messages:
Many people prefer receive tweets in the form of audios, videos and images. Find out what your followers want and make their experience personal.

  • Follow Conversations:
If you follow conversations of your followers you might get a window of opportunity to back track them to your blog. Keep yourself updated with the information being passed around as no one likes the same old nuisance that happened 24 hours ago. People want recent news, views and information.

  • Trends On Twitter:
Follow trends and keep looking for them constantly. What you need to do is grab a trend at its growing point so that you are well-positioned when they reach their height of popularity. Granted this isn't easy but this will flow in more targeted traffic to your blog from Twitter.

  • Understanding Your Niche's Language:
Understand the type of lingo your niche uses on Twitter and you will suddenly become one of the 'in-crowd'.

All these keys, tips and tricks are very important in getting you the best targeted traffic from Twitter to your blog. Your followers are going to think of you as genuine and reliable once you start conversing with them. Thus, visiting your blog as often as possible and publicizing it as much as possible.
